The collection contains a series of reflections on some key issues and approaches to teaching and learning about deviance. These exchanges are particularly relevantfor instructors who teach multiple courses on related topics and must communicate to their students the boundaries between, say, deviance, criminology, and delinquency. The core of this guide lies in its interdisciplinary collection of syllabi—thirteen exemplary models drawn from both large and small classroom settings of how others have approached the challenge of crafting a deviance course.. The syllabi provide useful ideas for ways of structuring readings, developing assignments, student assessment, and communicating your course objectives and teaching philosophy. Moving from the first day of class to a post-final examination project, the guide contains twelve examples of exercises and assignments that can be incorporated into your class.. A special section dedicated to ways of exploring deviance outside of the classroom is also included. The contributions include ways that service learning projects can be integrated into your course; a reflexive dispensable camera capstone project; the national Inside-Out Prison Exchange Program; and reflections on handling internships.
